Michael Vick‘s six-year, $100 million contract will void to a five-year, $80 million deal if he meets minor playing-time requirements in any of the first five seasons, which, barring catastrophic injury, he will, according to league sources.

Vick will earn $20 million in the first year of the contract — he was previously on a $16 million franchise tag — according to the source, and $48 million over the first three years of the deal. The deal includes $36 million in guaranteed money.

Of that guaranteed portion, $33 million is tied to the first two years of the deal. Only $3 million of the guaranteed total comes with the stipulation that Vick is on the Eagles’ roster in February of 2013, for the start of that season.
